Do a save as, then try to figure out what on earth happened? If it were just a glitch, then obviously, you wouldn't want him dead - but the other options might make the game more interesting.
I always do a Save As, that's how I would be able to do a roll-back. I decided to exit without saving and to follow the dad this time. Turns out it was likely Death by Chicken(s). Seems Sir Buttercup wasn't over his snit and Lady Cricket also wasn't very happy. I had him give those two the last two Friendly Treats he had on him, this after Sir Buttercup had him backed into the stone fence! He fed them, cleaned their coop and otherwise survived the one attack. At least now I know what likely happened. I went ahead and wrote up an obituary for him, for my next posting of "What Happened In Your Game, the Non-Serial Version" thread.
Since he survived this go-around, I won't have to use it. I could just use the chicken attack story for amusement. I tried to catch a photo of it, anyway. As I stated in my original post, I once tried to make lemonade out of the lemons given to me by this game, but it went from bad to worse. I just was not having a good time. Same Sim, by the way, in a much earlier iteration. Since we now know we're getting a wedding pack, I also had that in my mind as I was deliberating what to do. I could just start all over, waiting until the GP came out then maybe their wedding ceremony would play out better. Oh, well. I took a chance. Guess curiosity of what happened got the best of me. Not sad, in fact, now I have a chance to fulfil the original goal I had for him. :)
